His work on my broken ankle has withstood the test of time! Three months after finishing chemo in 2004, I merely stepped off a curb, and my foot broke off - literally hanging by the skin on my leg. I thought for sure that my foot would have to be fused to my leg bone because of the placement of the breaks. Dr. Fox did my surgery and saved my ankle. Today 17 years later, it still bends and moves with no problem, and it's actually stronger than my other ankle. He's an amazing doctor!

Dr. Fox did a knee replacement on me in 2012, Ihave had no problems since but more importantly there has been no pain.I would recommend him to anyone needing a replacement. He is very good!

Bad surgeon. Left me with one leg much shorter than the other. Legs were equal in length prior to hip replacement.

Dr Fox did a fantastic job with repairing both rotator cuffs. One night of dull pain. An important factor influencing my life, for a lifetime.

He would not do as the ER doctors recommended ! He instead threw me into therapy! Against the ER doctors advice! Waited 2 hours in waiting room staff rude! Rushed! Not happy ! The injection in hip hurts worse than organal injury!

didn't see me until day of surgery. provided updates to others involved in my treatment but didn't include me in those updates. ignored my lingering and worsening symptoms after surgery. rebuked me for taking pain meds. never read my injury report. put me on leave from work without telling me, then later on rescinded that order and put me on regular duty with no restrictions, once again without telling me. Same with PT/OT. Terrible after care, and even worse communication skills.
